  • Sherwood Forest National Nature Reserve Oyster Fungus on Birch, Birklands
    Sherwood Forest National Nature Reserve Oyster fungus on birch, Birklands Introduction In the heart of Nottinghamshire lie the ancient forests of Birklands and Budby, an extensive area of old pasture-woodland and heathland on the dry nutrient-poor soils © Peter Wakely/Natural England © Peter Wakely/Natural of the Sherwood Sandstone. Together they represent a rare and wonderful fragment of the great forest of Sherwood, one of the most famous forests in the world. Today, over 420 hectares of this internationally important forest is now managed as a National Nature Reserve (NNR). © Peter Wakely/Natural England © Peter Wakely/Natural Ancient wood-pasture, Birklands “By itself it stands, and is like no other spot on which my eyes have looked, or my feet have ever England © Peter Wakely/Natural trod. It is Birkland...” (Charles Reece Pemberton, 1835). Woodland glade, Birklands History Birklands, which is an old Viking word meaning ‘birch land’, was first mentioned in documents in 1251 and is likely to be at least one thousand years old. It was part of the vast Royal Forest of Sherwood that once covered over 41,000 hectares of the county. The wood remained the property of the Crown for nearly 600 years and was used as a source of timber, grazing land and as an exclusive hunting ground rich with wild deer for successive kings and queens of England. Contrary to popular opinion, much of the historic Sherwood Forest was, in fact, tree-less, being dominated by wild open plains of heathland such as Budby South Forest. This uncultivated forest land was once grazed by wild deer, rabbits and livestock; and its trees, gorse and bracken were collected by local people for fuel and fodder.

  • Sherwood Forest Country Park Contents
    Survey of Visitors August 2015 Sherwood Forest Country Park Contents PART 1 Survey Aims & Objectives Methodology Sample Size & Location PART 2 Visitor Characteristics PART 3 Visitor Experience PART 4 Summary & Key Findings Part 1 Aims & Objectives Methodology Sample Size & Location Survey Aims & Objectives This survey was commissioned by Nottinghamshire County Council’s Country Park Service to gauge current visitor satisfaction at Sherwood. This is part of an annual programme of visitor insight research and includes: • Demographic profile of visitors • Frequency of visits • Places visited once at the destination • Specific insights into ‘tourist’ visitors • Effectiveness of local promotion / visitor guides • Assessment of service delivery perceptions • Measurement of visitor satisfaction Where possible comparisons will be drawn with previous surveys to identify improvement or decline but this will not be possible in all cases as survey questions and formats have changed over time. Methodology The survey took place over seven days during the school summer holidays from Monday 10 th August – Sunday 16 th August 2015. This was the week immediately following the Park’s annual Robin Hood Festival. It was conducted during August to mirror the dates of previous visitor surveys and to provide clearer year-on-year comparisons. The survey was based on face-to-face interviews with visitors and three researchers were involved in the project. Researchers used Ipad tablet devices to quickly capture information. Questionnaires were programmed with icons, images, sliders and radio buttons to illustrate points and engage interviewees. Methodology The questionnaire consisted of 19 questions which were designed and agreed in advance with the Park Development Officer.

THE CHARTIST ROBIN HOOD: THOMAS MILLER’S ROYSTON GOWER; OR, THE DAYS OF KING JOHN (1838) Stephen Basdeo Thomas Miller was born in Gainsborough, Lincolnshire in 1807, to a poor family and in his early youth worked as a ploughboy before becoming a shoemaker’s apprentice. He had a limited education, but his mother encouraged him to read on a daily basis.1 In his adult life, he became a professional author. He greatly admired Walter Scott, whom he referred to as “the immortal author of Waverley.”2 Indeed, such was his admiration that it was in emulation of Scott’s Ivanhoe (1819) that Miller authored his own Robin Hood novel titled Royston Gower; or, The Days of King John, published in December 1838.3 Ivanhoe had a profound influence upon the Robin Hood legend.
